This app is a wonderful way of tracking the simple S&S kettlebell routine. There are some minor issues that keep me from giving it a 5-star rating. - No way of differing between a 2 handed swing and a one handed swing. Not a big deal but it would be nice as the book does recommend doing 2H every few days.- The history & progress pages have a lot of info that isn’t mine. I’m curious if it’s just pulling from other workouts folks have done to fill in that day. - No way to backup the data. Such as Dropbox or other services or a local backup. Not a big deal since the main focus of the app is to track the exercise and it does that swimmingly but this would be a nice feature. Other than that it’s an awesome app and I hope it keeps being worked on. It’s very appreciated.
Developer Response
edit: the bogus data should be removed in any newly installed versions!Thanks for the feedback. I unfortunately had to rush out a release to change the name due to legal issues. I deployed a development version that had pre populated workout data. You can swipe the workouts to the left to delete them.
Too many small annoyances
tombeaulo
The app is okay. I want to like it, but there are too many annoyances. 1. Dark mode issues. There is no in-app way to change from light to dark mode, you have to go all the way to system settings. Additionally, you can’t see the weights in your history while in dark mode. 2. Timer annoyances. I can understand the appeal to a simple timer, but sometimes I forget to click the button at the start. Would love the ability to tack on time manually to estimate stuff that I forgot to properly tracker. 3. Weight tracking annoyances. Wish I could change the weight of lifts either during the lifting session or in the history. This is especially true when I want to try a heavier weight, but might miss it and don’t want to improperly track things. 4. Lacking reports. Would like the reports to show my progress from S to S+ in some way. Even just an average/total weight lifted for swings/TGUs would be nice. Even with all these critiques, I’m gonna keep using the app because it provides some value. It just leaves quite a bit to be desired.
How to get to getups?
twocomenoi
When I use it it just has swings. I haven’t figured out, how to get to the getups part of the workout. It only gives me options for swings.
Developer Response
you have to finish the swings first before the getups. the app doesn't support doing some of the swings and some of the getups, it's just meant to track the complete workout.
Simple and So So
MickTheMick
This app is good, but it really needs a timer. The end goal for S&S is to be able to complete 100 swings in 10 minutes or less, and 5 get ups in each side in 10 minutes or less. No way to track that with this app.
Developer Response
Hey Mick -- great news, I just updated it last night to track swings and getups separately and display a brief history of the workout. I'd love to hear what you think about the latest version. I'm sure there's more to do!
